TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN


SUBJECT: ECU UPGRADE – MIL ON WITH DTC(s) P0420/P0171
 NOTICE
This bulletin has been revised to include additional information. New/revised
sections of this bulletin are indicated by a black bar in the margin area.
This bulletin provides information related to the ECU software upgrade for some 2012~2015MY
Optima (QF) vehicles, produced from August 12, 2011 to October 2, 2015, some
2012~2015MY Sorento (XMa) vehicles, produced from April 19, 2011 to December 11, 2014,
some 2011~2015MY Optima (TF) vehicles, produced from August 12, 2010 to July 23, 2015,
and some 2014~2016MY Sportage (SL) vehicles, produced from September 30, 2013 to
November 16, 2015, which may experience a malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) illuminated with
the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) system-related DTC(s): P0420 and possibly P0171. This
concern occurs most commonly during prolonged engine braking while descending a steep
grade.
To correct this condition, first inspect the warm-up catalytic converter function using GDS/KDS,
as outlined in the procedure below. If inspection confirms warm-up catalytic converter (WCC)
function is outside of normal operating parameters, replace the exhaust manifold, inspect, and if
necessary, replace the under-floor catalytic converter (UCC), and reprogram the ECU using the
GDS/KDS download, as described in this bulletin. If inspection reveals no abnormalities in the
WCC or UCC, reprogram the ECU ONLY. For confirmation that the latest reflash has been
done to a vehicle you are working on, verify ROM ID using the tables in this TSB.
P0420: Catalyst System Efficiency below Threshold (Bank 1)
P0171: System Too Lean (Bank 1)

SUBJECT:
ECU UPGRADE – MIL ON WITH DTCS P0420/P0171
Inspection/Replacement Procedure:
1. Scan and confirm DTC P0420 with
possible DTC P0171 using GDS/KDS.

2. After the vehicle has reached normal


operating temperature, with the engine
at idle, access Data Analysis and view
the downstream O2 sensor signals.

3. If the O2 sensor signals are abnormal or


erratic, as shown, proceed to the
Service Procedure on Page 3. NOTE:
After exhaust manifold replacement,
proceed to ECU upgrade on Page 4.

4. If the O2 sensor signals are normal, as


shown, proceed to the ECU Upgrade
Procedure on Page 4.

ECU UPGRADE – MIL ON WITH DTCs P0420/P0171
Service Procedure:
1. Refer to the “Exhaust Manifold →
Removal” section in the applicable
Workshop Manual on KGIS, to replace
the exhaust manifold.

 NOTICE
Before installing the new exhaust
manifold, see step 2 below and
inspect the under-floor catalytic
converter for debris.

2. With exhaust manifold removed, inspect


the under-floor catalytic converter.

 NOTICE
If debris in the under-floor catalytic
converter is excessive and cannot
be removed, replacement of the
under-floor catalytic converter is
necessary to ensure proper
operation of the catalytic converter.

If debris in the under-floor catalytic


converter is minimal, remove
debris and proceed to the ECU
Upgrade Procedure on page 4.

 NOTICE
 A fully charged battery is necessary before ECU upgrade can take place. It is
recommended that the Midtronics GR8-1299 system be used in ECU mode during
charging. DO NOT connect any other battery charger to the vehicle during ECU
upgrade.
 All ECU upgrades must be done with the ignition key in the ‘ON’ position.
 Be careful not to disconnect any cables connected to the vehicle or GDS during
the ECU upgrade procedure.
 DO NOT start the engine during ECU upgrade.
 DO NOT turn the ignition key ‘OFF’ or interrupt the power supply during ECU
upgrade.
 When the ECU upgrade is completed, turn the ignition ‘OFF’ and wait 10 seconds
before starting the engine.
 ONLY use approved ECU upgrade software designated for the correct model,
year.

CAUTION
Before attempting an ECU upgrade on any Kia model, make sure to first determine
whether the particular model is equipped with an immobilizer security system.
Failure to follow proper procedures may cause the PCM to become inoperative after
the upgrade and any claims associated with this repair may be subject to
chargeback.

To verify the vehicle is affected, be sure to check the Calibration Identification of the vehicle's ECU
ROM ID and reference the Information Table as necessary.

 NOTICE
If performing this TSB using KDS, refer to TSB SST 037 for detailed information.

1. Connect the power supply cable to the GDS.

 NOTICE
If attempting to perform the ECU upgrade with the power supply cable
disconnected from the GDS, be sure to check that the GDS is fully charged
before ECU upgrade. If the GDS is not fully charged, failure to perform the ECU
upgrade may occur. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that the power supply
connector be connected to the GDS.

2. Connect the USB cable between the VCI and the GDS.

 NOTICE
When performing the ECU upgrade using the GDS, wireless communication
between the VCI and GDS is not available. Therefore, be sure to connect the USB
cable between the VCI and the GDS.

3. Connect the Main 16-pin DLC cable (GHDM – 241000) to the VCI.

4. Connect the Main 16-pin DLC cable


(GHDM – 241000) to the OBD-II
connector, located under the driver's
side of the instrument panel.

5. With the ignition key ON, turn ON the VCI and GDS. Access the GDS vehicle identification
number (VIN) screen and configure the vehicle using the VIN AUTO DETECT Function.

6. Select ENGINE system and click OK.

Image shown is for reference only purposes and will vary by model.

7. Select ECU Upgrade from the bottom right-hand corner. Next select Auto Mode, and
then Engine. Perform the ECU upgrade in accordance with normal GDS ECU upgrade
procedure.

8. Check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes using the GDS and erase any DTCs stored such as
EPS, ESC, and TPMS that may have been set during reprogramming.

9. Start the engine to confirm proper operation of the vehicle.

CAUTION
Before attempting an ECU upgrade on any Kia model, make sure to first determine
whether the particular model is equipped with an immobilizer security system.
Failure to follow proper procedures may cause the PCM to become inoperative after
the upgrade and any claims associated with this repair may be subject to
chargeback.
